The total synthesis of the HCl salts of two natural sphingolipid-related amino acid derivatives, mycestericins F 4 and G 5 together with unnatural ent-4·HCl, starting from the four crucial scaffolds 6, 8, 9, 11 and utilizing the Wittig reaction to build the C20 backbone, has been achieved. The selection of selective functional group interconversions accompanied with suitable protection–deprotection protocols in the coupling products 20 and 34 gave the desired structures.
